CFP: AIPS-2002 Workshop on Planning for Temporal Domains
----------------------------------------------

There is now  a large  group  of researchers  within the planning
community looking at the problems of  planning  in  temporal  domains.
Although  several  working  planners capable of reasoning
with some model of time now exist (TGP, IxTET, HSTS/Europa,  TP4,
TLPlan and some others), many of them are based on similar underlying
assumptions about time and there has been little  published
work considering key questions concerning the consequences of
introducing
time into planning domain models.  Now  that  there  is some  experience

in the community, with the handling of time and other numeric resources,

it is important to answer some of  these questions and arrive at some
consensus about the theory of temporal planning.

Interested parties are invited to submit papers for  presentation at
the workshop. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

* Working temporal planning systems
* Temporal  domain  modelling languages
* Applications of temporal planning
* Temporal reasoning

Further  information about the motivations and objectives of the
workshop can be found at:
